Accurate apparatus for demonstrating Newton's laws of motion.

• Includes ballistic launcher, rigid arm pendulum, angle backdrop, steel ball, and release mechanism
• Convenient angle backdrop makes measurements easier
• White scale against black surface for maximum contrast

The ballistic pendulum contains everything needed to measure the momentum of a projected object - the ballistic launcher, rigid arm pendulum, angle backdrop, steel ball, and release mechanism are all included. This unit can be used to aid in the understanding of velocity and acceleration, conservation of momentum and energy, potential energy, and kinetic energy. Great for use with photogates (not included). Its heavy base, sturdy construction and high-constrast scales make it easy to use and transport.
